Finally I get to ask. How do you define "Panic?"

I see preparation and concern, but somehow people keep screaming panic who dislike the nCOVID-19 threads. I added the "n" because WHO failed to identify novel.

What exactly to you mean by panic?

Panic-people who obsessively cannot stop talking breathlessly about it which would include Democrats, large swaths in the media, and even some people here.

Of course, they wouldn’t define it as panic, would they? They would define it as preparation and concern.

Can’t do anything about it, so they talk about it. You will notice I pointedly didn’t ask anyone to stop posting about it.

At this time, concern is warranted. Obsession is not, in my opinion.

By the way, I can’t bring myself to criticize those who I may view as overly concerned-I recognize their mental state, and I have sympathy more than irritation or anything like that.
